The Captain


As the sun shines down on Latitude 24*, and Longitude 81*,

as it inevitably will, take in the ultra violet rays,

feel the warmth, and know that Captain Tony is

looking down at the Straits of Florida, 428 Greene Street,

and a passel of loving children, adoring Conchs, and strangers

who felt the Key West connection in the hand shake of a man

who hitched a ride to the last resort on a milk truck some years ago.
